Château La Mission Haut-Brion forveksles af og til med andre af ”Haut Brion”-navnene i Pessac-Léognan, og bliver nu og da opfattet som Château Haut-Brions 2. vin. Det er under ingen omstændigheder tilfældet. Omstændighederne har gjort at Château La Mission Haut-Brion og Château Haut Brion, i dag har samme ejere. Det noget mindre kendskab der er til Château La Mission Haut-Brion, kan måske hænge sammen med den noget mindre produktion som slottet præsterer på de kun omkring 20 hektar. Men vinene er, som Haut Brion, blandt de allerstørste vine i hele Bordeauxregionen, og i de største årgange er det en sikker 100 pointsvin i Robert Parkers univers. Dillon-familien, der har ejet Château Haut Brion siden 1935, købte La Mission i 1983, og familien har haft en kraftig del af æren for, at La Mission er i blandt eliten i området.

Honeyed peach, minty herbs, and flowers all define the 2025 Château La Mission Haut-Brion Blanc, a brilliant white based on 64.5% Sauvignon Blanc and 35.5% Sémillon that's being raised in 30% new oak, which is slightly less than in past vintages. Medium to full-bodied on the palate, it's incredibly pure and focused, with juicy acidity and a great finish. It's an absolutely stunning wine that pretty much stopped me in my tracks. Drink 2026-2050.
Honeysuckle, lemon grass, white peaches, green apples, and pineapples explode from the glass. The palate is packed with waves of bright, fresh, vibrant, sweet, yellow fruits, with the perfect accent of bitterness, salt, and sweetness in the finish. The wine is made from a blend of 64.5% Semillon, and 35.5% Sauvignon Blanc, picking took place August 14-August 21. Yields were 22 hectoliters per hectare. 14.5% ABV, 3.2 pH. Drink from 2028-2045.
The La Mission Haut-Brion 2025 Blanc, a blend of 64.5% Sémillon and 35.5% Sauvignon Blanc, was vinified in barrels and bottled from April 13. It reveals a pure, crystalline bouquet that is both fresh and lightly exotic, with notes of ripe white fruits, jasmine, linden and verbena. Medium- to full-bodied, dense and enveloping, it’s layered yet vibrant and built around a fleshy core of fruit, supported by bright acidity and elegant tension. Ethereal and finely detailed, it is remarkable in its ability to retain freshness despite the warmth of the vintage. This is one of the most complete expressions of the wine in recent years, combining both density and brightness, and among the finest white wines produced in Bordeaux this year.
